PREFACE 



1 he object of this manual is, to furnish our Pastors with 
a Pocket Diary, Visiting Book, and Church Directory in 
one volume. It is so arranged that it may answer their pur- 
pose two years if necessary. Hence we have omitted the 
unit in the figures representing the year except in the Calen- 
dar. Those who wish to use the book more than two years 
can do so by pasting in a new Calendar. We have also 
omitted the letters from the Diary indicating the day of Hie 
week, for the same reason. Thus the preachers have, in 
small compass, the information which they need in acting as 
agents for books and periodicals, and the benevolent socie- 
ties of the Church. 

It is not presumed that the book will please every one. 
Some will regret that we did not insert this, and others that 
we omitted that. But it must be remembered that the work 
is designed to be carried in the pocket always and every- 
where, and if made to embrace too much it would be too 
large, and so complex as not fully to answer the purpose eon- 
te in plated. 

The blanks left for an index can be filled so as readily to 
find any memorandum that may be made.

METHODIST BOOK CONCERN. 



PHILLIPS & HUNT, Agents, 805 Broadway, N. Y 
CRANSTON & STOWE, Cincinnati and Chicago. 

Publish a great variety of Religious Literature, including Bibles, in 
several sizes and varieties of binding; Commentaries; Church and 
Sunday-school Music; Religious Treatises; Biographies; Hymn 
Books of the Methodist Episcopal Church, in great varieties of style 
and sizes; Bible Dictionaries, and the largest collection of Sunday- 
school Literature in the country. German books are published only 
at Cincinnati, but can be ordered from any of the establishments. 

Agents. — All the traveling ministers of the Methodist Episcopal 
Church who are in full connection are regularly authorized agents 
of the Methodist Book Concern. Preachers on trial in the Conferences, 
and loeal preachers employed to fill vacant appointments, who act as 
agents for periodicals and purchase of books, are requested to forward 
the cash with their orders, or if they wish an account opened, to send I 
a recommendation from the Presiding Elder of the District. A little j 
reflection will show the propriety of this, as the brethren referred to 
are generally entire strangers to the Book Agents. Presiding Elders j 
will please furnish a list of those they feel willing to recommend at j 
an early period after the session of their Conference. 

Our terms to Methodist clergymen are as follows, namely : Discount i 
on books of the General Catalogue, including Commentaries, Hymnals, I 
Hymnals with Tunes, Youths' Library, and Libraries A and B, for j 
cash or thirty days' credit, 30 per cent. ; for a credit of ninety days, I 
25 per cent. ; for a credit over ninety days, 20 per cent. On Bibles , 
and Maps, 15 and 20 per cent. Cheap and Fifty Volume Libraries in j 
sets, Question Books, Certificates, Class Books, Records, Music Books, I 
Berean Leaves, etc., and books marked thus f " net." 
On Outside Books, from " net" to 25 per cent. 

Remit by Draft on New York, Certificate of Deposit, or Post-office \ 
Money-order. When these cannot be obtained, send by registered \ 
letter. Money sent in other ways will be at the sender's risk. 

Risk and Freight. — The Concern assumes the risk of all ship- 
nients of books and pays the freight by transportation lines (not by \ 
I express) where hills amount to $50 or more. Shipments of less than j 
i $50 are at the risk of the purchasers, who also pay the freight. j

All communications respecting statistics, and the general business of the 
Sunday-School Union of the Methodist Episcopal Church, should be addressed 
to the Corresponding Secretary, J. H. Vincent, D.D., 805 Broadway. N. Y. 

Applications for aid in behalf of Sunday -schools should be addressed to the

BAPTISM OF INFANTS. 13 



THE MINISTRATION OF BAPTISM TO INFANTS. 

The Minister, coming to the Font, which is to be filled toith pure Water, 
shall use the following : 

Dearly Beloved ; Forasmuch as all men are conceived 
and born in sin, and that our Saviour Christ saith, Except 
a man be born of water and of the Spirit he cannot enter 
into the kingdom of God ; I beseech you to call upon 
God the Father, through our Lord Jesus Christ, that hav- 
ing, of his bounteous mercy, redeemed this child by the 
blood of his Son, he will grant that he, being baptized with 
water, may also be baptized with the Holy Ghost, be re- 
ceived into Christ's holy Church, and become a lively 
member of the same. 

Then shall the Minister say, 

Let us pray. 
Almighty and everlasting God, who of thy great mercy 
hast condescended to enter into covenant relations with 
man, wherein thou hast included children as partakers of 
its gracious benefits, declaring that of such is thy kingdom : 
and in thy ancient Church didst appoint divers baptisms, 
figuring thereby the renewing of the Holy Ghost ; and by 
thy well-beloved Son Jesus Christ gavest commandment to 
thy holy Apostles to go into all the world and disciple all 
nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of 
the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: We beseech thee, that 
of thine infinite mercy thou wilt look upon this child : wash 
him and sanctify him ; that he, being saved by thy grace, 
may be received into Christ's holy Church, and being 
steadfast in faith, joyful through hope, and rooted in love, 
may so overcome the evils of this present world, that 
finally he may attain to everlasting life, and reign with 
thee, world without end, through Jesus Christ our Lord. 
Amen. 



14 BAPTISM OF INFANTS. 

O merciful God, grant that all carnal affections may die 
in him, and that all things belonging to the Spirit may live 
and grow in him. Amen. 

Grant that he may have power and strength to have 
victory, and to triumph against the devil, the world, and 
the flesh. Amen. 

Grant that whosoever is dedicated to thee by our office 
and ministry may also be endued with heavenly virtues, 
and everlastingly rewarded through thy mercy, O blessed 
Lord God, who dost live, and govern all things, world 
without end. Amen. 

Almighty, ever-living God, whose most dearly beloved 
Son Jesus Christ, for the forgiveness of our sins, did shed 
out of his most precious side both water and blood, regard, 
w r e beseech thee, our supplications. Sanctify this water 
for this holy sacrament ; and grant that this child, now to 
be baptized, may receive the fullness of thy grace, and ever 
remain in the number of thy faithful and elect children, 
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. 

Thai shall the Minister addreaa the Pbrenta [or Ghuirdiana} aa follows 

Dearly beloved ; Forasmuch as this child is now pre- 
sented by you for Christian baptism, you must remember 
that it is your part and duty to see that he be taught, as 
soon as he shall be able to learn, the nature and end of 
this holy sacrament. And that he may know these things 
the better, you shall call upon him to give reverent attend- 
ance upon the appointed means of grace, such as the min- 
istry of the word and the public and private worship of 
God ; and further, ye shall provide that he shall read the 
Holy Scriptures, and learn the Lord's Prayer, the Ten 
Commandments, the Apostles' Creed, the Catechism, and 
all other things which a Christian ought to know and be- 
lieve to his soul's health, in order that he may be brought 



BAPTISM OF INFANTS. 15 

up to lead a virtuous and holy life, remembering always 

that baptism doth represent unto us that inward purity 
which disposeth us to follow the example of our Saviour 
Christ ; that as he died and rose again for us, so should 
we, who are baptized, die unto sin and rise again unto 
righteousness, continually mortifying all corrupt affections, 
and daily proceeding in all virtue and godliness. 

Do you therefore solemnly engage to fulfill these duties, 
so far as in you lies, the Lord being your helper ? 

Ans. We do. 

Then shall the people stand up, and the Minuter shall say: 

Hear the words of the Gospel, written by St. Mark. 
[Chap, x, 13-16.] 

They brought young children to Christ, that he should 
touch them. And his disciples rebuked those that brought 
them. But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, 
and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto 
me, and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of 
God. Verily 1 say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive 
the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter 
therein. And he took them up in his arms, put his hands 
upon them, and blessed them. 

Then the Minister shall take the Child into his hands, and my to the 
friends of the Child, 

Name this child. 

And then, naming it after them, he shall sprinkle or pour Water upon it, 
or, if desired, immerse it in Water, saying, 

N., 1 baptize thee in the name of the Father, and of the 
Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen. 

Then shall the Minister offer the following prayer, the people kneeling : 

God of infinite mercy, the Father of all the faithful 
seed, be pleased to grant unto this child an understanding 



16 BAPTISM OF INFANTS. 

mind and a sanctified heart. May thy providence lead him 
through the dangers, temptations, and ignorance of his 
youth, that he may never run into folly nor into the evils of 
an unbridled appetite. We pray thee so to order the 
course of his life, that by good education, by holy ex- 
amples, and by thy restraining and renewing grace, he 
may be led to serve thee faithfully all his days, so that, 
when he has glorified thee in his generation, and has served 
the Church on earth, he may be received into thine eternal 
kingdom, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. 

Almighty and most merciful Father, let thy loving 
mercy and compassion descend upon these, thy servant 
and handmaid, the parents [or guardians] of this child. 
Grant unto them, we beseech thee, thy holy Spirit, that 
they may, like Abraham, command their household to 
keep the way of the Lord. Direct their actions and 
sanctify their hearts, words, and purposes, that their whole 
family may be united to our Lord Jesus Christ in the 
bands of faith, obedience, and charity ; and that they all, 
being in this life thy holy children by adoption and grace, 
may be admitted into the Church of the first-born in 
heaven, through the merits of thy dear Son, our Saviour 
and Redeemer. Amen. 

Then may the Minister offer extemporary prayer* 
Then shall be ttaid, all kneeling : 

Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. 
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in 
heaven. Give us this day our daily bread ; and forgive us 
our trespasses as we forgive them that trespass against us ; 
and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil ; 
for thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, 
forever. Amen.

FORM OF SOLEMNIZATION OF MATRIMONY. 

[The parts in brackets throughout may be used or not, at 
discretion.] 

At the day and time appointed for solemnization of matrimony, thfi 
persons to be married — having been qualified according to law — 
standing together, the man on the right hand, and the woman on tlie 
left, tlie minister shall say : 

Dearly Beloved, we are gathered together here in the 
sight of God, and in the presence of these witnesses, to 
join together this man and this woman in holy matrimony ; 
which is ail honorable estate, instituted of God in the time 
of man's innocency, signifying unto us the mystical union 
that is between Christ and his Church ; which holy estate 
Christ adorned and beautified with His presence, and first 
miracle that he wrought, in Cana of Galilee, and is com- 
mended of St. Paul to be honorable among all men; and 
therefore is not by any to be entered into unadvisedly, 
but reverently, discreetly, and in the fear of God. 

Into which holy estate these two persons present come 
now to be joined. Therefore if any can show just cause 
why they may not lawfully be joined together, let him 
now speak, or else hereafter forever hold his peace. 

[And also speaking unto the persons that are to be married, he shall say . 

1 require and charge you both, that if either of you 
know any impediment why you may not be lawfully 
joined together in matrimony, you do now confess it ; for 
be ye well assured, that so many as are coupled together 
otherwise than God's word doth allow, are not joined to- 
gether by God, neither is their matrimony lawful.] 



18 MATRIMONY. 

If no impediment be alleged, tlien shall the minister say v/nto the mmn, 

M., wilt thou have this woman to be thy wedded wife, 
to live together after God's ordinance in the holy estate of

keep her, in sickness and in health : and forsaking all other, 
keep thee only unto her, so long as ye both shall live 1 

The man shall answer \ 

I will. 

Then shall the minister say unto the woman, 

N.. wilt thou have this man to be thy wedded husband, 
to live together after God's ordinance in the holy estate 
of matrimony 1 Wilt thou love, honor, and keep him, in 
sickness and in health : and forsaking all other, keep thee 
only unto him, so long as ye both shall live? 

The woman shall answer, 
I will. 

[Then the minister shall cause the man with his right hand to take the 
woman by her right hand, and to say after him as followeth : 

I, M., take thee, JV., to be my wedded wife, to have and 
to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for 
richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to 
cherish, till death us do part, according to God's holy 
ordinance : and thereto I plight thee my faith. 

Then shall tliey loose their liands, and tJie woman with lier right hand 
taking the man by his right hand, shall likewise say after the 
minister : 

I, TV., take thee, M., to be my wedded husband, to have 
and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse,

and to cherish, till death us do part, according to God's 
holy ordinance; and thereto 1 plight thee my faith.]

O eternal God, Creator and Preserver of all mankind, 
Giver of all spiritual grace, the Author of everlasting life ; 
sand thy blessing upon these thy servants, this man and 
this woman ; whom we bless in thy name ; that as Isaac 
and Rebecca lived faithfully together, so these persons 
may surely perform and keep the vow and covenant be- 
tween them made, and may ever remain in perfect love 
and peace together, and live according to thy laws, through 
Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. 

[If tlie parties desire it, tlve man shall here hand a ring to the mimster, 
wlio shall return it to him, and direct him to place it on tlie third 
finger of the woman's left hand. Avd the man slvall say to the 
woman, repeating after the minister, 

With this ring I thee wed, and with my worldly goods 
I thee endow, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, 
and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.~\ 

Then shall the minister join their right hands togetJier, and say : 

Forasmuch as M. and JV. have consented together in 
holy wedlock, and have witnessed the same before God 
and this company, and thereto have pledged their faith 
either to other, and have declared the same by joining of 
hands ; I pronounce that they are husband and wife to- 
gether, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of 
the Holy Ghost. Those whom God hath joined together, 
let no man put asunder. Amen. 

And the mimste? sMU add this blessing : 

God, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, bless, 
preserve, and keep you ; the Lord mercifully with His 
favor look upon you, and so fill you with all spiritual 
benediction and grace, that ye may so live together in this 



20 MATRIMONY. 

life, that in the world to come ye may have life everlast- 
ing. Amen. 

Then, sliall the minister offer the following prayer : 

O God of Abraham, God of Isaac, God of Jacob, bless 
this man and this woman, and sow the seed of eternal 
life in their hearts, that whatsoever in thy holy word they 
shall profitably learn, they may indeed fulfill the same. 
Look, O Lord, mercifully on them from heaven, and bless 
them : as thou didst send thy blessings upon Abraham 
and Sarah, to their great comfort, so vouchsafe to send 
thy blessings upon this man and this woman, that they, 
obeying thy will, and always being in safety under thy 
protection, may abide in thy love unto their lives' end, 
through Jesus Christ our Lord. 

Almighty God, who at the beginning didst create our 
first parents, Adam and Eve, and didst sanctify and join 
them together in marriage, pour upon these persons the 
riches of Thy grace, sanctify and bless them, that they 
may please Thee both in body and soul, and live together 
in holy love unto their lives' end. Amen. 

Here the minister may use extemporary prayer. 

Then tlie minister shall say, 

Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. 
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth as it is 
in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread ; and for- 
give us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass 
against us ; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver 
us from evil ; for thine is the kingdom, and the power, 
and the glory, forever. Amen.

SCKTPTURE LESSONS. 
GROUNDS FOR HOPE. 

For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn 
the world ; but that the world through him might be 
saved. John iii, 17. 

The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some 
men count slackness ; but is long-suffering to us-ward, not 
willing that any should perish, but that all should come 
to repentance. 2 Pet. iii, 9. 

Therefore, O thou son of man, speak unto the house of 
Israel ; Thus ye speak, saying, If our transgressions and 
our sins be upon us, and we pine away in them, how should 
we then live 1 Say unto them, As 1 live, saith the Lord 
God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked ; but 
that the wicked turn from his way and live : turn ye, 
turn ye from your evil ways ; for why will ye die, O 
house of Israel % Ezek. xxxiii, 10, 11. 

He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up 
for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us 
all things ] Rom. viii, 32. 

But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than 
the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory 
and honor; that he by the grace of God should taste 
death for every man. Heb. ii, ( J. 

Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, 
and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and 
learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye 
nhall find rest unto your souls. Matt, xi, 28, 29. 

Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the 
earth : for 1 am God, and there is none else Isa. xlv, 22. 



22 VISITING THE SICK. 

And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him 
that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athii st come. 
And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely. 
Rev. xxii, 17. 

Him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out. 
John vi, 37. 

He that covereth his sins shall not prosper : but whoso 
confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. Prov. 
xxviii, 13. 

TERMS OF SALVATION. 

If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, 
and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him 
from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart 
man believeth unto righteousness, and with the mouth 
confession is made unto salvation. For the Scripture 
saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. 
For there is no difference between the Jew and the 
Greek : for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that 
call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name 
of the Lord shall be saved. Rom. x, 9-13. 

Not by works of righteousness which we have done, 
but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing 
of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost. Titus 
iii, 5. 

He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved ; but 
he that believeth not shall be damned. Mark xvi, 16. 

And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, 
even so must the Son of man be lifted up : that whoso- 
ever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal 
life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only 
begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not 
perish, but have everlasting life. John iii, 14-16.

AFFLICTIONS BENEFICIAL. 

Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth : 
therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Al- 
mighty. Job v, 17. 

For whom the Lord loveth he correcteth ; even as a 
father the son in whom he delighteth. Pro v. iii, 12. 

I know, O Lord, that thy judgments are right, and that 
thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me. Psa. cxix, 75. 

Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man 
chasteneth his son, so the Lord thy God chasteneth thee. 
Deut. viii, 5. 

Blessed are they that mourn : for they shall be com- 
forted. Matt, v, 4. 

For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, 
worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight 
of glory ; while we look not at the things which are seen, 
but at the things which are not seen. 2 Cor. iv, 17, 18. 

Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial 
which is to try you, as though some strange thing hap- 
pened unto you : but rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers 
of Christ's sufferings ; that, when his glory shall be re- 
vealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. 1 Pet. 
iv, 12, 13. 

For the Lord will not cast off forever : but though he 
cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the 
multitude of his mercies. For he doth not afflict will- 
ingly, nor grieve the children of men. Lam. iii, 31-33. 

It is good for me that I have been afflicted ; that I might 
learn thy statutes. Psa. cxix, 71. 

Before I was afflicted I went astray : but now have J 
kept thy word. Psa. cxix, 67.

thi.e ; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my 
righteousness. Isa. xli, 10. 

Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his 
saints. Psa. cxvi, 15. 

He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. 
Heb. xiii, 5. 

Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain 
thee. Psa. lv, 22. 

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of , 
death, I will fear no evil : for thou art with me ; thy rod 
and thy staff they comfort me. Psa. xxiii, 4. 

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace whose mind is 
stayed on thee : because he trusteth in thee. Isa. xxvi, 3. 

And the Lord, he it is that doth go before thee ; he 
will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake 
thee : fear not, neither be dismayed. Dent, xxxi, 8. 

And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, 
Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from 
henceforth : Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from 
their labors, and their works do follow them. Rev. xiv, 13. 

Marvel not at this : for the hour is coming, in the which 
all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, and shall 
come forth : they that have done good, unto the resun ec- 
tion of life ; and they that have done evil, unto the resur 
rection of damnation. John v, 28, 29. 

Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the 
I life : he that believeth in me, though he were dead> yet 
i shall he live: and whosoever liveth and believeth in me 
shall never die. John xi, 25, 20.

The wicked is driven away in his wickedness : but the 
righteous hath hope in his death. Pro v. xiv, 32. 

Foi whethei we live, we live unto the Lord ; and

he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him 
against that day. 2 Tim. i, 12. 

As the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also 
himself likewise took part of the same; that through ' 
death he might .... deliver them, who through fear of 
death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. Heb. 
ii, 14 15. 

O death, I will be thy plagues ; O grave, 1 will be thy 
destruction. Hosea xiii, 14. 

He will swallow up death in victory. Isa. xxv, 8. 

Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last 
end be like his. Num. xxiii, 10.

crying neither shall there be any more pain: for the 
former things are passed away. Rev. xxi, 4. 

And there shall be no night there ; and the)' need no

BURIAL OF THE DEAD. 31 



ORDER FOR THE BURIAL OF THE DEAD. 

The minister, going before the corpse, shall say : 

i am the resurrection and the life : he that believeth in 
me, though he were dead, yet shall he live ; and whoso- 
ever liveth, and believeth in me, shall never die. [John 
xi, 25, 26.] 

I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that He shall 
stand at the latter day upon the earth ; and though, after 
my skin, worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall 
I see God, whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes 
shall behold, and not another. [Job xix, 25-27.] 

We brought nothing into this world, and it is certain 
we can carry nothing out. The Lord gave and the Lord 
hath taken away : blessed be the name of the Lord. 
[1 Tim. vi, 7; Job i, 21.] 

At the grave, when the corpse is laid in the earth, the minister shall 

say: 

Man that is born of a woman hath but a short time to 
live, and is full of misery. He cometh up, and is cut 
down like a flower; he fleeth as it were a shadow, and 
never continueth in one stay. 

In the midst of life we are in death : of whom may we 
seek for succor, but of thee, O Lord, who for our sins art 
justly displeased ? 

Yet, O Lord God most holy, O Lord most mighty, O 
holy and most merciful Saviour, deliver us not into the 
bitter pains of eternal death. 

Thou knowest, Lord, the secrets of our hearts ; shut 
not thy merciful ears to our prayers, but spare us, Lord 
most holy, O God most mighty, O holy and merciful 



32 BURIAL OF THE DEAD. 

Saviour, thou most worthy Judge eternal, suffer us not 
at our last hour for any pains of death to fall from thee. 

Then, while the earth sliall be cast upon the body by some standing by, 
the minister shall say : 

Forasmuch as it hath pleased Almighty God, in his 
wise providence, to take out of the world the soul of the 
departed, we therefore commit his body to the ground ; 
earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust ; looking for 
the general Resurrection in the last day, and the life of 
the world to come, through our Lord Jesus Christ ; at 
whose second coming in glorious majesty to judge the 
world, the earth and the sea shall give up their dead ; 
and the corruptible bodies of those who sleep in Him 
shall be changed and made like unto His own glorious 
body, according to the mighty working whereby He is 
able to subdue all things unto Himself. 

Then shall be said : 

I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, 
From henceforth blessed are the dead who die in the 
Lord : Even so, saith the Spirit ; for they rest from their 
labors. 

Then shall Hie minister say: 

Lord, have mercy upon us. 
Christ, have mercy upon us. 
Lord, have mercy upon us. 

The Collect. 

O merciful God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 
who is the resurrection and the life : in whom whosoever 
believeth shall live, though he die, and whosoever liveth 
and believeth shall not die eternally: We meekly bo- 
seech thee, O Father, to raise us from the death of sin 



BURIAL OF THE DEAD. 38 

unto the life of righteousness ; that when we shall depart 
this life we may rest in Him ; and at the general resur 
rection on the last day may be found acceptable in th) 
sight, and receive that blessing which thy well-beloved 
Son shall then pronounce to all that love and fear thee, 
saving, Come, ye blessed children of my Father, receive 
the kingdom prepared for you from the beginning of the 
world. Grant this, we beseech thee, O merciful Father, 
through Jesus Christ our Mediator and Redeemer. Amen. 

Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. 
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth as it is 
in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread ; and for- 
give us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass 
against us ; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver 
us from evil : for thine is the kingdom, and the power, 
j and the glory, forever. Amen. 

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of 
God, and the fellowship of the Holy Ghost, be with us 
all evermore. Amen.
